A chunky hand-drawn print face with brush-like strokes and noticeably ragged edges. Forms are generally rounded and compact, with irregular stroke width, uneven terminals, and slight wobble that suggests marker or dry-brush lettering. Counters are often small and organic, and curves show subtle flat spots and nicks that create a distressed silhouette. Spacing is open enough for display use, while the overall rhythm remains intentionally inconsistent for a natural, handmade feel.
Works best for short, high-impact text where texture is an asset: posters, flyers, album or event graphics, packaging accents, and headline treatments in social or editorial layouts. It can also add character to quotes or callouts when set with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing.
The font conveys an energetic, scrappy tone—informal, slightly gritty, and expressive rather than polished. Its rough texture and uneven contours give it a DIY personality that reads as playful and rebellious, with a handmade authenticity.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, confident hand-lettering made with a blunt brush or marker, prioritizing personality and texture over precision. Its irregular outlines and punchy weight aim to add immediacy and a handcrafted feel to display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent brush-textured construction, with single-storey lowercase forms and simplified geometry throughout. Numerals follow the same roughened, painted logic, keeping the set cohesive for short statements and headings.
